Hi MT!
Ur faithful back with answers😃
What is your general take on Jai's attitude towards Roshni? He seems to be extremely rude yet caring like a true friend towards her, and yet again shows absolutely no inkling of any romantic feelings towards her, as if they were only good friends but never lovers? Can you guess the true relationship between Jai and Roshni based on Jai's behaviour towards her? There is no romantic angle to that relationship atleast from Jai's point of view. I wont even say friendship coz Jai doesn't share a comfort zone with her. He is forced to put up with her, he gets irritated, angry frustrated with her around. He even called her an outsider very diplomatically(did Roshini realize that? Or was she lip smacking thinking of chicken soup?) But somewhere coz of that secret that they share, there is a sense of estranged yet enforced trust that they share… that is the only thing that is keeping their relationship going.
Jai's concern yday in helping her walk was more chivalrous than anything else. His concern over her swollen leg and him volunteering to stay back to help here was just because he is a very compassionate guy at heart. Only if Bani had fainted, she would have been his 1st priority. Moreover I think Jai has taken the moral responsibility of her accident coz it happened in his house and his nephew and sister-in-law were responsible for it. I think they came back late and everyone else had gone to sleep, Bani was too tired for him to ask her to take care of Roshini so he decided he will keep a check on her, coz she looked in pain. Whatever be the relationship that Jai, Roshini share now they WERE good friends a few years back.
Bani ended up asking for Jai's happiness from God along with Pia and Rano? Is that indicative of a further rift from her sisters, especially Pia...because Jai and Pia will always be on parallel tracks and Bani would have to ultimately make a choice between choosing her husband's happiness or her sister's? I was sulking so much when Bani began with her Sister's kushiyoon ka jaap… I was wondering why didn't Jai or herself feature in her prayers and then Jai came into the list. Asking for Jai's happiness is as good as asking for THEIR happiness.. so I have no problem. Thank God Bani began thinking of her life for a change… Good for starters!!!
I am waiting for the day Bani has to make a choice between Jai and Pia and she chooses Jai. Bani-Rano will never go separate ways. Bani –Pia will. Jai will not ask Bani to make the choice, Pia will. Jai wont mind Bani have contacts wit Pia-Pushkar as long as she keeps him out of it. Bani will, but Pia is still under the impression she can influence Jai. She is so mistaken. I am so waiting for Jai to tell Pia to get lost coz he is HAPPY and in LOVE with Bani!
Jai looked guilty and helpless towards Bani as he tells Roshni that he will spend the night in her room. Is Jai's suggestive gesture towards Bani an indication of his growing responsibility as a husband who wants to assure his wife silently that there is nothing going on between me and my ex-girlfriend and don't worry, I am only meant for you? Jai would have slept out even otherwise or on the sofa in Roshini's room. I didn't feel he was guilty, may be helpless. When he looked at Bani, he was trying to read those emotions on her face which was seemed to speak of the distress she was going through. I don't think he felt he was doing anything wrong, he didn't cross any limits… he was just being that caring guy he is. If he knew Bani wouldnt like it, he wont have offered to stay back.. but now that he has he couldnt go back on his word. Another scene when Bani was standing at the door fuming, Jai looked at her, and asked "wahan kya kar rahi ho Bani, Pani yahan lao' He wasn't rude at all… just a bit confused and puzzled with Bani's reaction. He understood Bani's emotions when she turned around hearing jai saying he will stay back with her. what was very sweet of Jai was that he wasnt offended by Bani's questioning look, he understood that any wife would feel the same. I think that gesture suggested he considers himself married and is someone's husband now… that look he gave bani was assuring her there was nothing between him and Roshini. Moreover Jai knows his limits esp when he can see Roshini's drooling over him.
Not that Bani doesn't trust Jai, but she was just jealous and it was normal. Cant deny the fact that she found some peace only after seeing Jai sleeping on the couch. She felt reassured and GOOD about the fact that Jai wouldn't share a room with anyone else but his wife. Even though they don't have a marriage to talk about, Jai would stay ONLY with her rather than anyone else… I bet it proved a lot. I think I saw a fleeting trace of guilt when she realized she didn't trust Jai.
Bani's growing feelings of jealousy and possessiveness towards Jai is making her slightly aggressive and bold, atleast with respect to Roshni. Do you think that Jai will notice the difference in Bani's attitude and what do you think he will feel about the same? Jai has noticed Bani's discomfort whenever Roshini is around but hasn't seen jealousy or possessiveness as such. Yday he noticed Bani sad face which seemed to ask him "r u really going to stay here?" and Jai looked so helpless since he had already committed. But Jai treated that as a normal reaction from his wife rather than something as strong as jealousy. If he comes to know about Bani's possessiveness he will be very amused. I am sure he will be quite proud of Bani when he hears her back answering Roshini. we might even see him grinning. Only if he had heard Bani tell Roshini that she knew Jai slept out all night he would have grinned happily through out the day.
Guessing by the way Roshni talked about Pushkar to Bani and her subsequent look of fright, does it indicate that Roshni has a fair idea that Bani was once in love with Pushkar and if she does, do you think she will use it to poison Jai's mind against his wife? I am bit apprehensive about those sly smiles Roshini keeps giving when she calls Pushkar in front of Bani. Bani's reactions kind of confused me. First time it happened I thought it was coz Bani was worried about Jai. It could be that she was worried about Jai even the second time round, but I am not convinced. I hope Roshini has no clue.. but if did she wont wait for so long, would have told Jai. if she knows she will use it against her.
What do you think will Bani's reaction be if and when Pushkar confronts her regarding her once upon a time feelings for him? Will Bani lie point blank to him refuting everything or will she accept and then plead to Pushkar to forget the past and never bring this up again? Do you feel that somewhere down in her Heart, Bani still holds some embers of emotions for Pushkar or are they completely awashed with Jai's love? Bani will be passive… she will calmly tell Pushkar it wasn't love but infatuation and she is over it now. She will let him know that Jai is the love of her life, and what she feels for Jai is too strong to harbour any kind of affection for any other man connected to her past. She will tell him that they have moved on with their respective lives there is no point in discussing it. She better not plead to pushkar, that spineless creature… why should she. If he has any humanity, dignity left he will keep his mouth SHUT. I have my doubts about Pia though… it will be the worst if Jai has to come to through Pia.
Pushkar is Bani's friend, her brother in law, nothing more nothing less. Bani's heart is overwhelming with Jai's love… there cant be an iota of emotion for anyone else.
With Pushkar growing disillusioned with his marriage to Pia day by day, do you think that the day Pushkar comes to know that Bani had once been in love with him become the last nail on the coffin on his relationship with Pia and deluge him with regret for what he lost out? Or will Pushkar always consider Bani to be his friend and nothing more and continue loving Pia selflessly? Whatever happens to Pia-Pushkar I simply DON'T CARE! It would be my cause of concern only if they begin to affect Jai-Bani's relationship adversely. Pushkar decides to stay in his marriage, regret it, walk out of it… I am not bothered. But ask him to KEEP AWAY from Jai-Bani.
Do you think that Bani is too traditional and old-fashioned for her age and takes her role as Jai's wife very seriously? Do you feel that even though Jai and Bani are apart by 17 years in age, they are mentally in the same wavelength...as in Jai is very forward thinking and modern for his age and Bani is quite the orthodox girl for her age and hence they strike a perfect balance as Husband & Wife? At the end of the day Love can equalize any difference between any two individuals no matter how different they are. Jai-Bani are already in Love, it is just a matter of them acknowledging it. Not only Love, both of them share a great amount of understanding, trust and respect for eachother that it will strengthen their relationship further. As u said both their belief and temperament only goes towards balancing their relationship. This adorable couple is God Blessed they can survive anything. Touchwood.
A long term question for your analysis; Bani has always been a girl who has had an unbeliveable capacity for forgiveness and the ability to not hold a gurdge against anyone for even a moment, whatever be the cause. My question is, whenever the truth comes out from Jai's closet, do you think that Bani will be able to forgive Jai the way she forgave Pia and Pushkar? It depends on what that secret is!!! Sometimes I feel Jai is assuming the worst, but then I also feel Jai knows Bani very well. He has observed her over the days, knows what her family means to her… may be he is right in gauging Bani's reaction. But what Jai hasn't considered is what he means to Bani!!! We don't know to what extent Bani can go for Jai… until now nothing has been able to overpower her love(unrealized) for Jai… not even the meanest of Jai's behaviour or the harshest of his words. Bani not necessarily might forgive or forget… but she will let bygones be bygones. It might be easier for her to let go, coz now she loves Jai and probably knows Jai loves her too coz of which he went to extents to make sure he protects her from the harsh reality. Bani is pretty philosophical in that way… if bani is the only victim of this mystery, she will let go. But what if her parents are involved(which is most likely) and her sisters have been equally wronged… that takes away from Bani the right to forgive. It is too early to say anything… it all bottles down to what Jai is hiding from her.
Happy answering over the Weekend! Going by Anu's Promo, it seems that the next week will see a lot of action as Mausi will be coming back home and Bani will probably try and poison Roshni in a fit of rage! (I hope she succeeds and the blame comes on Jigyasa & Ranveer!) Bani just might… no wonder Roshini got her own cooks, just incase Bani had some intensions like that. I want Bani to somehow arrange for Roshini's stay at the outhouse. She can come up with some smart reasons to convince Jai. I thinking telling Jai Pushkar comes home everyday, he & Roshini work from here, will do the trick. Jai will surely ask Roshini to move to the outhouse so that she can have her privacy without disturbing his peace. He can ask Jigyasa to give Roshini company. I would give anything in this world to catch Roshini & Jigyasa's jaw drop in horror and Bani's victory smile and Jai protective glance towards his wife. Btw I hope Massi is back soon.
That is it for now.
Bye take care
Luv
Anu
